Free Looking Glass script

by Ruchira on April 4, 2013

Looking Glass’s are perfect to troubleshoot network issues. Those can generate ping, traceroute, mtr reports from the server to the host that you wish. Most popular example is Hurricane Electric’s looking glass http://lg.he.net/

There is a new free and open source script to build your own looking glass with features like

host

mtr

mtr6 (IPv6)

ping

ping6 (IPv6)

traceroute

traceroute6 (IPv6)

Interface looks clean as you can see on above image and installation is pretty easy too. It requires shell access and PHP 5.3 or newer with PHP PDO enabled. Github page is located here https://github.com/telephone/LookingGlass

Answer to follow up questions and that’s it, Now you got a looking glass
